The Air Pressure Churn. 
The Air Pressure Churn has been proved by some of the best 
dairymen in the country to be the only perfect churn in exist¬ 
ence. It has no dashers, but works by the aid of condensed 
air; is simple, durable, and quick working, and warranted to 
make more butter than any other churn, invariably of the best 
quality. 
From the New - York Century. 
“ The Air-Pressure Churn secures the greatest possible ra¬ 
pidity of process, with the utmost evenness of grain. It, fur¬ 
thermore, gains seven percent, more butter, out of the same 
quantity of milk or cream, than the old-fashioned machines. 
In short, it makes an article more nearly perfect than any in¬ 
strument now known. The grand secret of its success con¬ 
sists in bringing every particle of the milk or cream to the equal 
action of the air, anil to that air in a state of condensation .” 
Entire satisfaction given or the money returned.

Put up in boxes of 60 pounds each in 1-pound 
bars, price $5 per box. This Soap is rapidly tak¬ 
ing the place of all other Soaps wherever intro¬ 
duced. One pound will go as far as 3 pounds of 
ordinary family Soap. It will wash in either hard 
or salt water; it does not injure the fabric—on 
the contrary, it preserves it and fixes the colors. 
It will remove paint., grease, and stains of all 
kinds. But little labor is required where this 
Soap is used. Directions sent in each box for 
making ONE POUND OF THE ABOVE 
SOAP into THREE GALLONS OF HAND¬ 
SOME SOFT SOAP. Send for a box and give 
it a trial. If you do not want a whole box your¬ 
self, get your neighbors to join you, and divide 
it. Believing that no family who has once used 
this Soap will ever be without it, and being de¬ 
sirous to have its merits widely known, I have 
made arrangements with the proprietors of the 
following papers (many of whom have tried the 
Soap and know its value), by which I am .able 
for the present to offer to any person, remitting 
to me $5 on any solvent bank in the United M ates, 
one box of the above soap, and a receipt for one 
year’s subscription to either of the following 
New-York papers, viz. : 
American Agriculturist, The Examiner. 
The Weekly Tribune, The Christian Advo- 
The Weekly Day Book, cate, 
The Weekly Times, The Scottish Ameri- 
The Weekly Sun, can Journal, 
The Century, Hankins’ Family Pic- 
United States Journal, • torial, 
The Independent, 
Or, if preferred, I will semi. The Semi-Week¬ 
ly Tribune six months, or the Daily Tribune, 
Times, or Sun two months. 
Please be particular and give fulT directions 
for shipping the goods. Also, give the name of 
your Post-Office, with the State and County in 
which you reside. Address 
B. T. BABBITT, 
Nos. 61, 66, 68, 70, 72, and 74 Washington-st ,

P. S. I will send the Soap without paper on 
receipt of $4 20. 
Important to Housekeepers!

SELECT SPICES, 
In this age of adulterated and tasteless Spices, it is with con¬ 
fidence that vve introduce to the attention of housekeepers these 
superior articles. We guarantee them not only 
iitosolMtely and perfectly pure, 
but ground from fresh Spices, selected and cleaned by us ex¬ 
pressly for the purpose, without reference to cost. They are 
beautifully packed in tinfoil, (lined with paper.) to prevent in¬ 
jury by keeping, and are full weight, while the ordinary ground 
Spices are almost invariably short. We warrant them, in point 
of richness and flavor, 
Skeyoasd all comparison, 
as a single trial will instantly prove. 
Manufactured only by E. R. DURKEE & CO., New-York. 
For sale by dealers in choice groceries generally. 
GUANO. 
We would call the attention of Guano Dealers, Planters, and 
Farmers to the article which we have on hand and for sale at 
FORTY PER CENT LESS THAN PERUVIAN GUANO 
and which we claim to be superior to any Guano or fertilizer 
ever imported or manufactured in this country. This Guano is 
imported by WM. H WEBB, of New-York, from Jarvis’ & Ba¬ 
ker’s Islands, in the “South Pacific Ocean,” and is sold genu¬ 
ine and pure as imported. It has been satisfactorily tested by 
many of our prominent Farmers, and analyzed by the most em¬ 
inent and popular Agricultural Chemists, and found to contain 
(as will be seen by our circulars) a large per centage of Bone 
Phosphate of Lime, and Phosphoric Acid, and other animal organ¬ 
ic matter, yielding ammonia sufficient to produce immediate 
abundant crops, besides substantially enriching the soil. It can 
be freely used without danger of burning the seed or plant by 
coming in contact with it, as is the case with some other ferti¬ 
lizers; retaining a great degree of moisture, it causes the plant 
to grow in a healthy condition, and as experience has proved, 
free of insects. For orders in any quantity, (which will bo 
promptly attended to,) or pamphlets containing full particulars 
of analyses and tests of farmers, apply to
